A minor boy was stabbed to death following a quarrel over some matter in west Delhi’s Khyala area, police said on Monday.
A PCR call regarding a stabbing incident was received around 8.45 pm on Monday. A police team rushed to the spot and found the injured minor lying in an open area near a community centre.
“The victim had sustained a stab injury in the abdomen. He was rushed to Guru Gobind Singh Government Hospital for treatment, where doctors declared him dead during treatment,” a senior police officer said.
